"I had a tree come down during the high winds. It smashed my mailbox and post. He used his chipper and removed the tree. Great company to work with! I will be using them again to clear underbrush and remove other trees on my property."

"They called the same day i requested a service quote and came that afternoon even though it was raining like crazy. Joe gave us a quote and two days later the crew showed up and did an amazing job of removing a tree from our creek and cutting some branches from other trees. They removed a the debris and left the area clean. I highly recommend this company to any one."

"Andrew from Second Nature lawn care came out to do some touch up seeding this morning. He was wonderful. He has been here to do the fall seeding before and did a terrific job. He did the same for me today. He was thorough, informative and such a delight to have at my house. I could not have been more pleased. Second Nature is really fortunate to have him in their company!! I appreciate him so much and am grateful to Second Nature for for responding to my request so quickly !"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

If you aren’t sure what you’re doing, be very careful when cutting mature tree roots (roots larger than 2 inches). Root cutting and pruning can affect both a tree’s stability and its ability to nourish itself. Issues during root cutting can result in damage or injury. 

It’s recommended you call in a pro to help, unless it’s a very small tree and you aren’t worried about the prospect of losing the tree.

A chainsaw is the best tool to cut down a tree, but you may also use a handsaw or ax. You may also want to use a lopper or pole saw to remove limbs before cutting down the tree. Wear chainsaw chaps and protective gear, including eyewear and earplugs if you use a chainsaw. Again, if you’re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip.

The exact answer to this question depends on which region of the country you’re talking about, but according to various tree counts, some of the most common types of trees in the United States include red maple, Douglas fir, quaking aspen, loblolly pine, and sweetgum.

The best way is to start controlling tree height long before it grows too large, via careful pruning through the years. But that’s not always possible. If a tree has become too high or too large, use selective pruning to remove the most troublesome branches, one by one, without topping the tree. Gently shaping a tree like this can, over time, correct problems. You can also find growth inhibitors to spray on a tree to stop it from growing too rapidly, but use these sparingly if at all.

Trees are beneficial to the environment and wildlife. If you have an old tree, but it’s healthy, it may be best to avoid cutting it down. However, if it’s showing signs of bug infestation, disease, or is potentially hazardous, then you should contact a tree removal company to cut it down. 

If you are unsure whether you should have it removed or not, then speak with an arborist to determine what is best.
